Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of refrigeration energy-saving technology, and specifically to a refrigeration equipment energy-saving optimization method and system based on a deep learning algorithm. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous growth of global energy consumption, energy conservation and emission reduction have become the focus of social attention. As the main part of building energy consumption, refrigeration equipment accounts for about 40%-60% of the total building consumption throughout the year. In the hot summer, it can even reach more than 70% in some areas. Therefore, energy-saving optimization of refrigeration equipment is of great significance to reducing energy consumption.

[0003] In the related technologies, regarding the technical methods for energy-saving optimization of refrigeration equipment, there are variable frequency technologies that adjust the speed of the compressor to match the actual refrigeration demand, such as variable frequency air conditioners. This technology can automatically adjust the speed of the compressor according to the changes in indoor temperature to ensure that it continues to operate at a lower speed during operation, thereby avoiding the energy loss caused by the traditional fixed-frequency air conditioner running at a higher speed and frequent start and stop; there are also intelligent control technologies that use more sensitive integrated sensors and automation technologies to achieve real-time monitoring and rapid adjustment of the operating status of the air-conditioning system. The related technologies are mainly concentrated in two aspects: one is to reduce the energy loss caused by frequent start and stop of the equipment by controlling the compressor to run continuously at a low frequency; the other is to be sensitive to the external environment and automatically adjust it to avoid overheating or overcooling, so as to reduce unnecessary waste.

[0004] However, the relevant technologies have the following defects: (1) The existing "frequency conversion technology" mainly focuses on reducing the operating power of the compressor and ensuring low-frequency continuous operation to achieve energy saving. It mainly uses the operating power of the compressor as the control variable to achieve the energy saving goal of reducing energy consumption, but ignores the impact of changes in evaporation temperature and condensation temperature on the cooling rate during the operation of the equipment. According to the operating principle of refrigeration equipment, the cooling effect of the refrigerant has a certain nonlinear relationship with the evaporation temperature and condensation temperature. The cooling capacity produced by a unit of refrigerant is different at different temperatures, and the cooling capacity under the final unit energy consumption will also change. (2) With the widespread application of new technologies, integrated sensors and automation technologies have also been added to the control system of refrigeration equipment to achieve real-time monitoring and automatic adjustment. However, the adjustment mechanism mostly relies on fixed settings and lacks flexibility. In addition, due to the lack of prediction of future cooling demand, the regulation is usually based on the current state, resulting in a certain lag in the adjustment of the control system, which is prone to overcooling, resulting in a waste of cooling capacity and ultimately energy loss.

[0021] The embodiments of the present application provide a method and system for energy-saving optimization of refrigeration equipment based on a deep learning algorithm, thereby solving the problem of unsatisfactory control effect of refrigeration equipment due to inaccurate prediction of refrigeration demand.

[0022] The technical solution in the embodiment of the present application is to solve the above technical problems, and the overall idea is as follows:

[0023] With the continuous growth of global energy consumption, energy conservation and emission reduction have become the focus of social attention. As the main part of building energy consumption, refrigeration equipment accounts for about 40%-60% of the total building consumption throughout the year. In the hot summer, it can even reach more than 70% in some areas. Therefore, energy-saving optimization of refrigeration equipment is of great significance to reducing energy consumption.

[0024] In the related technologies, regarding the technical methods for energy-saving optimization of refrigeration equipment, there are variable frequency technologies that adjust the speed of the compressor to match the actual refrigeration demand, such as variable frequency air conditioners. This technology can automatically adjust the speed of the compressor according to the changes in indoor temperature to ensure that it continues to operate at a lower speed during operation, thereby avoiding the energy loss caused by the traditional fixed-frequency air conditioner running at a higher speed and frequent start and stop; there are also intelligent control technologies that use more sensitive integrated sensors and automation technologies to achieve real-time monitoring and rapid adjustment of the operating status of the air-conditioning system. The related technologies are mainly concentrated in two aspects: one is to reduce the energy loss caused by frequent start and stop of the equipment by controlling the compressor to run continuously at a low frequency; the other is to be sensitive to the external environment and automatically adjust it to avoid overheating or overcooling, so as to reduce unnecessary waste.

[0025] However, the relevant technologies have the following defects: (1) The existing "frequency conversion technology" mainly focuses on reducing the operating power of the compressor and ensuring low-frequency continuous operation to achieve energy saving. It mainly uses the operating power of the compressor as the control variable to achieve the energy saving goal of reducing energy consumption, but ignores the impact of changes in evaporation temperature and condensation temperature on the cooling rate during the operation of the equipment. According to the operating principle of refrigeration equipment, the cooling effect of the refrigerant has a certain nonlinear relationship with the evaporation temperature and condensation temperature. The cooling capacity produced by a unit of refrigerant is different at different temperatures, and the cooling capacity under the final unit energy consumption will also change. (2) With the widespread application of new technologies, integrated sensors and automation technologies have also been added to the control system of refrigeration equipment to achieve real-time monitoring and automatic adjustment. However, the adjustment mechanism mostly relies on fixed settings and lacks flexibility. In addition, due to the lack of prediction of future cooling demand, the regulation is usually based on the current state, resulting in a certain lag in the adjustment of the control system, which is prone to overcooling, resulting in a waste of cooling capacity and ultimately energy loss.

[0026] Deep learning algorithms simulate the way the human brain processes information by building multi-layer neural networks, thereby achieving feature learning and pattern recognition of data to achieve efficient task solving capabilities. It can help the model learn relevant features by training a large amount of historical data, and then make the model better adapt to the specific application environment through fine-tuning. Applying this model to refrigeration equipment can provide a decision-making basis for the automatic adjustment of refrigeration equipment to achieve more precise regulation and control, thereby saving energy.

[0027] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0028] The following first introduces a refrigeration equipment energy-saving optimization method based on a deep learning algorithm provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0029] A flowchart of a refrigeration equipment energy-saving optimization method based on a deep learning algorithm provided in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the refrigeration equipment energy-saving optimization method based on the deep learning algorithm may include the following steps S110-S150.

[0030] S110, obtaining historical raw data information arranged in time series, the raw data information including refrigeration output of the refrigeration equipment, environmental meteorological data, and daily operation data of the refrigeration equipment.

[0031] S120: Perform exception processing and normalization processing on the original data information to obtain target data information.

[0032] S130. Based on the target data information and the time series prediction method of the long short-term memory network (LSTM), an attention mechanism is introduced to construct a prediction model to output prediction information to predict the refrigeration demand in the future time period.

[0033] S140, deep learning training is performed based on the target data information to obtain a decision model, and a decision is made based on the cooling demand and pre-acquired meteorological forecast data with the goal of maximizing the cooling capacity per unit energy consumption, and the decision information is output.

[0034] S150. Regulating and optimizing the refrigeration equipment according to the decision information, wherein the decision information is used to characterize various values ​​of the equipment operation that maximizes the refrigeration output per unit energy consumption.

[0035] The above is a specific implementation method of a refrigeration equipment energy-saving optimization method based on a deep learning algorithm provided in an embodiment of the present application. It can be understood that the present application includes two stages for energy-saving optimization of refrigeration equipment. In the first stage, the present application predicts the refrigeration demand in a certain time period in the future based on the time series prediction method of the long short-term memory network LSTM, and collects the original data information according to the time series, and performs exception processing and normalization processing to obtain the target data information. According to the combination of the time series prediction method and the attention mechanism, a prediction model is constructed to predict the refrigeration demand in a certain time period in the future through model analysis, and the predicted refrigeration demand is used as the basis for subsequent regulatory decisions, so that the regulation is forward-looking, more timely and can achieve on-demand cooling.

[0036] Furthermore, in the second stage, the present application conducts deep learning training based on the target data information to obtain a decision model, and inputs the target data information as input data into the model for autonomous learning and repeated training, and finally infers the decision information under different environmental conditions and refrigeration requirements to characterize the various values ​​of the equipment operation that maximizes the refrigeration output per unit energy consumption, and make subsequent regulation decisions for the refrigeration equipment.

[0037] In one example, the environmental meteorological data includes the ambient temperature, ambient humidity and light intensity, and the daily operation data includes: energy consumption value, compressor operating power, evaporation temperature, condensation temperature and expansion valve operating value. It is understandable that the present application takes into account the influence of the difference between evaporation temperature and condensation temperature on the refrigeration effect, and on the basis of considering energy saving by reducing the compressor power, increases the refrigeration output per unit energy consumption by regulating the evaporation temperature and condensation temperature during the operation of the equipment, so as to improve the energy efficiency ratio and achieve energy saving.

[0038] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned abnormal processing and normalization processing are performed on the original data information to obtain the target data information, that is, the above-mentioned S120 may specifically include the following steps:

[0039] S210, marking and filling missing values ​​in the original data information by using a linear filling method;

[0040] S220, identifying outliers in the data by a box plot method, setting the outliers as null values ​​after determining the outliers, and performing linear supplementation to ensure the integrity and continuity of the data;

[0041] S230, normalize the data to ensure data consistency and obtain target data information; wherein the target data information includes target refrigeration information, target environmental information and target operation information corresponding to refrigeration output, environmental meteorological data and daily operation data respectively.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present application, it can be understood that the present application first performs data preprocessing on the acquired raw data information to complete the cleaning process; specifically, the missing values ​​can be marked and filled in by linear filling, and the box plot method is used for the identification of outliers. The interquartile range of the box plot is used to detect the outliers. After finding the outliers, the outliers are first set to null values ​​and then linearly supplemented. After ensuring the integrity and continuity of the data through the above operations, all data are normalized to ensure the consistency of the data for subsequent analysis and prediction.

[0043] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 , the aforementioned method based on the target data information and the time series prediction method of the long short-term memory network LSTM is used to introduce the attention mechanism to construct a prediction model to output prediction information to predict the refrigeration demand in the future time period, that is, the aforementioned S130 may specifically include the following steps:

[0044] S310, selecting time and target environment information as characteristic variables, and determining the characteristic variables and target cooling information as input information;

[0045] S320, selecting an activation function, a loss function, and an optimization algorithm, and determining the number of LSTM units, the number of layers, and the neural network layer for output mapping to obtain an LSTM model structure;

[0046] S330, introducing an attention mechanism into the LSTM model structure by calculating the attention score or weight distribution, and obtaining a target neural network structure;

[0047] S340, training the target neural network structure based on the input information to obtain a prediction model;

[0048] S350: Output prediction information based on the prediction model to characterize the refrigeration demand in a future time period.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, it can be understood that the target environmental information is a factor that may affect the cooling capacity. The present application selects characteristic variables and target cooling information as input information, and can also calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient for screening; the present application first determines the preliminary LSTM model structure, and then introduces the attention mechanism, so that the model can automatically learn and pay attention to the important features in the input information, thereby highlighting the role of important features. The present application constructs a model by combining the above-mentioned time series prediction method based on the long short-term memory network LSTM with the attention mechanism, and uses historical data for training. It can predict the cooling demand in a certain time period in the future and output it as part of the input data for the next stage.

[0050] In one example, the target neural network structure is trained based on the input information to obtain a prediction model, that is, the aforementioned S340 may specifically include the following steps:

[0051] S410, inputting the input information into the target LSTM model structure;

[0052] S420, learning the long-term dependency of the time series corresponding to the input information through the iteration of time steps and the connection between LSTM units, and extracting key features;

[0053] S430: During the model training process, the prediction model is obtained by adjusting the network parameters to minimize the prediction error.

[0054] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned deep learning training is performed based on the target data information to obtain a decision model, and a decision is made based on the cooling demand and the pre-acquired meteorological forecast data with the maximum cooling capacity per unit energy consumption as the goal, and the decision information is output, that is, the above-mentioned S140 may specifically include the following steps:

[0055] S510, dividing the target data information into a test set and a validation set according to a preset ratio;

[0056] S520, input the test set into a preset deep learning framework for training to obtain an initial model;

[0057] S530, testing the initial model based on the validation set, and continuously adjusting the internal parameters of the initial model according to the obtained test results to obtain a decision model; wherein the decision model is used to determine the refrigeration output of the refrigeration equipment per unit energy consumption under different environments and different operating conditions;

[0058] S540, inputting the cooling demand and the obtained weather forecast data into the decision-making model, making a decision with the maximum cooling capacity per unit energy consumption as the goal, and outputting decision information.

[0059] In the embodiments of the present application, it can be understood that the present application constructs a decision-making model based on a deep learning algorithm to find the various operating values ​​of the refrigeration equipment that maximizes the refrigeration output per unit energy consumption, and then makes a decision based on the prediction results of the previous stage to determine the operating values ​​of the refrigeration equipment that maximizes the refrigeration output per unit energy consumption.

[0060] It should be noted that since the target data information includes target refrigeration information, target environmental information and target operation information corresponding to the refrigeration output, environmental meteorological data and daily operation data respectively, in the process of inputting the test set into the deep learning framework for training, the model can learn the relationship between the refrigeration capacity, environmental meteorological data and daily operation data of the refrigeration equipment, so that after determining the decision model, based on the refrigeration demand at future times and the obtained meteorological forecast data, the model can make decisions and output decision information.

[0061] In one example, the refrigeration equipment is regulated and optimized according to the decision information, that is, the aforementioned S150 includes: determining the subsequent operation plan of the refrigeration equipment for regulation and optimization according to the decision information; wherein the subsequent operation plan includes the equipment start-up time, the initial operating power of the compressor, the initial opening of the expansion valve, the cooling water circulation flow rate and the air-conditioning fan speed.

[0078] The output unit 635 is used to output prediction information based on the prediction model to represent the cooling demand in the future time period.

[0079] In some embodiments, the training unit 634 may be specifically configured to:

[0080] Input the input information to the target LSTM model structure;

[0081] Through the iteration of time steps and the connection between LSTM units, the long-term dependencies of the time series corresponding to the input information are learned and key features are extracted;

[0082] During the model training process, the prediction model is obtained by adjusting the network parameters to minimize the prediction error.
